We recently switched to a full T1 instead of DSL, and don't use Pop- we use the exchange server.
The new T1 Service does NOT SUPPORT pop servers.

all emails are now routed via our exchange server. The Network Timeclock does not login to the active directory / Domain controllers so it does not authenticate- it strickly a hardware device with limited software settings for LAN, Gateway, Mail Settings for outgoing ,etc.

when i try to send our weekly timeclock reports via the exchange servers ( the error is : it cant authenticate with the smtp server)

I believe this is because the timeclock is nothing more than a hardware device with a network plug that only connects into our LAN. but does not actually have a place to logint in to the Server.

Is there any work-around for sending our reports from the Network Timeclock using our Exchange Server without having to actually authenticate?

Your Exchange server requires authentication in order to send e-mails. You can turn on Open Relay on the Exchange server, but that will open you wide for spam and malicious attacks. You don't need to authenticate the timeclock to AD, but you should have the ability to tell the timeclock that it needs to authenticate to the outgoing SMTP server - many software programs understand that you need authentication.

When authenticating, try domain\username or just username for authentication - I've seen it work both ways.

There may be a way to turn on open relay for just one particular IP address, but I am not too sure.
